Default **Official aggressive stance thread**

I know there's a "low offset thread" and a "sunk face thread". Both of those have pictures but very little info. This is designed to be about equal parts eye candy and technical info. please don't post pictures of a bare rim on a car on jack stands, that can go in one of the wheel threads. You should only be posting in here if the car is done and in normal driving setup. Also, please don't post high offset, safe wheels that we all know will fit.

1. post only your own car
2. ONLY S2000s
3. keep the picture amount reasonable
4. POST SPECS!

Please give detailed sizes and offsets of your wheels, your alignment setup, your tire sizes, your fender work, how low you are, and any rubbing you may have.

When I was shopping for these wheels it was a nightmare to try and find information on the setup I wanted. This should make it very easy for someone who wants to run an aggressive setup find out what they're getting themselves in for. It should also make for some good S2000 eye candy.

I can't moderate this myself, but I can ask the mods to help keep this free of clutter.

My current setup:
- AP2 S2000
- ~2.0" lowered on KW V3s
- Front wheels/tires - Advan RZs 17x8.5 +45 w/ 225/45/17 Dunlop Direzza Star Specs
- Rear wheels/tires - Advan RZs 17x9 +45 w/ 255/40/17 Dunlop Direzza Start Specs
- 1.5 degrees neg camber front, 0 toe
- 2.5 degrees neg camber rear, .25" total toe in
- front fender top two tabs rolled
- rear fenders rolled and bumper tabs relocated.

At full suspension compression, my rear tires will just barely touch the inside of where the rear bumper bends in (the part that you would roll if it were metal). I haven't gotten the fronts to rub yet, and I've tried.

Just thought I'd put emphasis for future posters to follow suit and post specs. It's pretty valuable info.

I'm trying hard to come up with a reasonably aggressive setup to run 18's but don't want to go beyond rolling fenders.

Agreed, flite, very informative thread for potential wheel buyers looking for optimal sizing and offsets

Rolled and slightly flared (5mm) fenders front and rear
Suspension: Tein SRC's, lowered about 2 inches front and rear
Wheels: Wedsports TC105N's, 17x9 +49 front and rear *clears stoptech BBK without spacers
Tires:255/40/17 Yokohama Es100's front and rear
Camber:~-3.25 front and rear
No rubbing daily driven, rubbed on select turns at streets of willow, no rubbing at buttonwillow, but still need to adjust ride height for the roll center adjusters

Gotta dig up some more pics but:

Advan 17x9 +45
Advan Neova 255/40/17
KW V3's

Lots of camber F/R. Lots of rolling on fenders as well. Not exactly a plug and play setup!
